Went to the grand opening, really nice place.. HOWEVER.. they have a salt water set up that is HORRIBLE.. I wish I could have found someone there to talk to.. Horrible algea build up on the rocks.. all the snails were dead and moldy in the tank... a few fish swam around... not exactally something I would want to show on an opening weekend.. that makes me a little sad...

Wonder if it was a "rescue"?

lol! I hope not! usually there are signs on it saying "donated by" or something but there was nothing... nice big tank wood stand and canopy.

I was there too. It would be such a nice tank if they would find someone to properly take care of it.

Probably water from the tap.

lol I use tap water and my tank sure doesn't look like that... I really hope they take care of it.. there are about 6 fish in there that are going to end up dead!

lol! I was thinking that!!! but who knows if they would let us? we could sure make it sweet! i should have taken a picture

For sure they would love your help, don't expect them to be able to buy supplies though as their budgets are razor thin. I volunteered as a dog walker way back for BCSPCA and had a great time. Good people.

well then honestly maybe that's one project they should not have started to take on and they should surrender the livestock... it's a big tank... if they cannot maintain it there is no point in having it.
